Brilliant and inspiring work, Jon - thank you so much for creating these videos. I felt sorry to read that you were not getting the recognition and support you deserve for these very instructive and entertaining videos. I am hoping to see more videos from you and I trust you got her back on the road… ❤

Hey, I didn't really understand how to remove the pilot bearing. How did you do it and with what tool?
@GarageBiljon3 ай бұрын
The first step is to spray the pilot bearing with penetrating fluid to break down any corrosion between the bearing and the flywheel. It's important to note that the pilot bearing has a threaded section. Find a bolt that fits into these threads; I used one of the belhousing bolts. Once you have the correct bolt, find a pipe or socket that the bolt can pass through. Ensure that the head of the bolt is held back by the socket or pipe, and add a washer if needed. Now, all you have to do is tighten the bolt, and the pilot bearing should slowly pull out of the flywheel. If the bolt bottoms out, add more washer/spacers. I hop this help.

I did not find it difficult, but you do run a risk of bending the trim, so just be gentle. It is a press fit.

You need a spacer in the front that goes between the top mount and the body. For the rear you need to reindex the torsion bars.

Should have cut the J Pipe and put in a flex sleeve on it. The common fail point of the J Pipe is the weld at the flange to the waste gate due to vibration. Putting in a flex sleeve dampens the vibration and keeps the pipe from breaking off.

Fantastic, great overhaul - you must be getting more and more keen to see how it drives! I did a similar scope as you on my U.S. 968 white convertible back in January before shipping it over to the North of Italy where I now live. Koni yellow's (softest setting) and new discs. Front end is still not super tight and looking at the bushings now, going from easy to harder, starting with the anti-roll bar bushings, then the arm perhaps. Part of it might also just also be related to the inherent body flex of the cab. Still a joy to drive but will give it a good go to see how much improvement I can make.
@GarageBiljon8 ай бұрын
Yes, the cabs have quite some flex. I put mine on the middle setting, hopefully I can start driving her this summer 🤞

Great work Johann and a pleasure to watch as always.. Regarding the new blue injector caps, they do indeed work fine even though they will sit higher than the injector tip unlike the original green caps that sits flush. When I rebuilt my injectors I had the same concerns and wondered if they taller blue caps would interfere with the spray pattern, but since the originals broke when removing them, I had no choice but to install the blue caps before taking the injectors to a shop for ultrasonic clean and flow testing. And they worked 100% fine with the blue caps with no interference to spray pattern at all. In fact there was only 1% difference between the four injectors, so as good as new basically.
